He informed them that they will be sent to join the larger portion of their peoplo at Ft. Yates, that they need have no fears of re- ceiving any injuries from tho military 80 long as they continuo to behave themselves prupor]{, and that in short thoy are to Do treated the samo as those of their people who surrendered during the winter When Major Brotherton had finished, his remarks, which at times were met by grunts of approval by nearly all of the Indians present, except Sitting Bull, the latter waa informed that he could proceed with his little speech. He romained porfectly silent for at least five minutes, as if making a review of his past life. Then, addrossing him- self in a short speech to the Indians present, which speoch was not inter- rupted, ho finally turned to his little son and directed him to take up his rifle and present it to Major Brother- ton. Tlis being done the chiof said: 1 surrender this rifle to you through my son whom I now desire to act in this manner He has become a friend of the Americans. 1 wish him to learn the habits of the whites, and to bo educated as their sons are oducated. T wish it to be remembered that T was the last man of my tribe to surrender my rifle, and this day have given it to you, and he now wants to know how he is going to make a living. Whatever you have to give, or whatever you have to say, T would like to receive or hear now, for I don’t wish to be kept in darkness longer. I have sent severnl mossengers in here from time to time, but none of them have roturned with nows. The other chiefs, Crow King and Goll have not wanted me to come, and I have never received good news from you. Lnow receipt of the news here, is now in Bull's camp, and will remain with him to note and_report incidents of the journey and surrender. Maj. Brotherton has desired to keep vague rumors of Sitting-Bnll's move- ments, with which his name has been associated, out of the dispatches as far as possible, thinking your readers had a surfeit of such news, and wished to have him secured here in camp before any further publication on the sub- ject. But several boats having pass- ed carrying certain wild reports, he kindly permits jour correspondent to furnish you with reliable information. Legare’s letter was written at @ Y""" eight miles from Buford, - The ndians aro nearly all on foot. Tt is thought Capt. Clifford, who dould talk an Indian bino(il. or awallow a jack- knife for his edification if necessary, or ride all over him ot all round himg will camp with Sitting Bull to-night, and bring him here on Y, un- less some “unwarzanted interference has tnrned him from his course. 1 s Series of Acoidents.
